Re: [Banshee-List] Auto-Changing Unknown Artist and Album?



Aww, shoot. I'm sorry, Sandy. I was trying to figure out what the option "Copy files to media folders when importing" did. (There's no tooltip for it, and the music files were being copied to my hard drive, so I couldn't tell.)

Actually, that's no excuse. I just screwed up and missed it.

Sorry,
Larry

Hi,

I imported a CD that apparently did not contain meta-information about its
name, songs, artists, etc.

After importing it, it was marked as "Unknown Artist" and "Unknown Album" in
both Banshee and on my hard drive where all of my music files are stored.

In Banshee I filled in the album and song titles, artists, and genre
information. I had hoped that that would correspondingly rename the music
directory and files on my hard drive, but it did not. Is there any way to
force this to happen?
    

Yes, you can do this.  Look in Edit->Preferences and you will find
options for writing the metadata to the files, renaming them, etc.  It
is disabled by default, I think because most people on Linux don't
like apps messing with their files.  ;-)

Hope this helps,
Sandy
